Iconic Auto Sports has introduced the SP40 Restomod Speedster, a handcrafted vehicle inspired by the 1934 Model 40 and designed to blend vintage Art Deco aesthetics with modern automotive technology. The car features a carbon fiber body that reinterprets the original design, replacing the traditional hand-rolled aluminum to reduce weight while preserving the classic shape. Built on a tubular spaceframe chassis engineered by Pedro Campo, the SP40 includes an independent double-wishbone suspension with adjustable coil-overs, enhancing its performance and handling. Powering the SP40 is a Ford Coyote V-8 engine delivering over 480 horsepower, paired with a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission and Brembo brakes. The car weighs approximately 2,600 pounds and rides on forged aluminum wheels. Inside, customers can customize the interior with materials like leather, walnut trim, and carbon fiber, featuring an analog instrument panel and discreet integration of modern amenities such as climate control and wireless charging. Each SP40 is individually numbered
